*Boys’ Adventure & War Comics: A Rara Avis of the comic world this, the forerunner of the Lion Summer/Holiday Special which started in 1968, this extra-thick one-off from 1967 didn’t actually feature any of the Lion regulars, but rather adaptations and articles on ‘the Greatest Films Ever Made’, as the cover boasts. These include Thunderbirds Are Go, Batman, The Lost World, Tobruk, Quo Vadis, You Only Live Twice and others. A lovely copy, with only the very slightest edge wear, no tears or creases and nice white pages. As is not unusual with a 96 page item, just a hint of spine roll. Also included in this update, a lowish grade copy of the 1972 Lion & Thunder Holiday Special with a small corner off top right cover.
